SB 553 Compliance for Offsite Employees: Understanding Workplace Violence Prevention
Training Requirements for Offsite Employees
Judy Liang and Jessica Turner discuss how to effectively cover the necessary training for employees working at locations like skilled nursing homes and large expo events. The focus is on ensuring that these employees are as well prepared as their onsite counterparts to handle potential violent situations.
Application of SB 553 in Healthcare and Education
Jessica Turner explains that while SB 553 mandates workplace violence prevention training, the specifics may vary based on the actual work location. Employees in healthcare settings, such as nursing homes, are required to have comprehensive training to deal with potential violent encounters effectively.
Importance of Comprehensive Training Programs
The webinar emphasizes the importance of equipping all employees with the knowledge and skills to manage and mitigate incidents of violence, regardless of their regular work setting. This approach not only complies with legal requirements but also enhances overall employee safety and preparedness.
